The Adhan, the call to prayer recited by the muezzin, announces the start of each prayer. Muslims perform Wudu, a ritual cleansing, before Salah, which involves physical movements such as standing (Qiyam), bowing (Ruku), prostration (Sajdah), and sitting (Tashahhud). These movements not only fulfill religious duties but also offer health benefits including improved circulation, spinal flexibility, and brain stimulation.
Many Muslims gather in mosques for congregational prayers, reinforcing community bonds and equality among worshippers. Salah remains a vital practice shaping daily life and spiritual discipline for Muslims across North America.
